Abstract

MicroRNAs, a collection of short noncoding RNAs, are promising biomarkers for identifying cancer in its early stages and tracking the effectiveness of treatment. This is due to their critical role in regulating gene expression and other vital biological functions via cell-level epigenetic mechanisms. This review brings together data on the molecular and clinical effects of miR-765 on different types of cancer. Significant variation in miR-765 levels has been observed in a variety of cancer types, suggesting that it could have an oncogene or tumor suppressor role. A number of pathways, including PLP2/Notch, VEGFA/Akt1, PDX1, KLK4, RUNX2, DPF3, EMP3, APE1, ERK/EMT axis, and others, are impacted by the inclusion of miR-765 in their analysis. MiR-765 is an essential biomarker that shows promise as a diagnostic tool for various types of cancer. The latest research has identified them as reliable predictive markers for detecting tumor development at an early stage. Based on our study, miR-765 shows promising potential as a biomarker for prognosis in multiple types of cancer. Specifically, we suggest that miR-765 could be an early detection marker for tumor development, progression, and metastasis.
